Question Is the text blurry?

I just finished my first photobook. I used another program (Scrapbook Factory) to make the jpg´s that I have included in the book and I´m not sure if the texts that I included in the JPG´s are OK or are blurry; could you let me know if they´re OK or if I should do it differently? I´ve heard that text made in jpgs could come out blurry and I´m afraid the book will get ruined.

I would appreciate any insight.
Thanks,

hi Pillirp,

That book tells a fabulous story and the pictures are great. The text looks slightly fuzzy in the few pages I viewed by zooming. I could read everything just fine so it's not blurry, at least to me.

I suggest calling tech support and ask them. What size book are you planning? The 12-font size increases in the Deluxe and appears to be about 14, using Microsoft Word sizes. Using the 12-font in a Classic is just like 12 in Word.

I talked to tachnical suppport and they said the text was fine. I guess I´ll buy the book and hope everything comes alright. I´m glad you liked the book. It has taken me three months to do it!!!!

It is really a long process/learning curve to create a book and I had no idea of any of it. I've had my first book in my hands for two weeks and want to say the quality is very good. It is a higher quality paper than Apple and Snapfish. I ordered the Deluxe and Classic sizes. The Deluxe full-bleed pages really draw you into the scene, particularly scenic panoramas. You can see so much more detail. The drawback is the weight of the book while viewing. It's heavy and should sit on a table while viewing it. The Classic size can be held easily. The detail you see in person is better than what you see on the computer and the color matches what you see on the screen.

The Classic's paper is thick enough that people think two pages are stuck together and try to separate them. The Deluxe paper is even thicker than the Classic. I have to keep telling people it's thick paper and just turn the page.

One full-bleed picture in the Deluxe size had a spot in a cloud, which I thought was a printing problem. I went back to the photo and could see a tiny spot. It was a bird or something against the cloud. You could see it on the large page, that's how clear and bright each page is produced. I know you will be happy with everything.
